Appliances should match how you actually live, not what looks impressive. Oversized cookers, double-door fridges, or built-in ovens look great — until you realize they consume more power, space, and maintenance than expected.
Common regrets include:
buying appliances without measuring cabinet clearance
choosing style over energy efficiency
installing appliances that are hard to repair locally
forgetting future replacement sizes
Before buying, confirm:
power and gas requirements
availability of spare parts
warranty terms
ventilation needs
A practical appliance that works daily beats a fancy one that stresses you monthly.
